HOTEL ZEPHYR

Interior of modern lounge area with circular window, blue chairs, brown wood paneling, red shipping container, and decorative ceiling lights.

San Francisco, CA

The largest hotel at Fisherman’s Wharf, this sprawling property has played a significant role in the area’s tourism since it began as a Travelodge in the early 1960s. A 355-guestroom remodel, full rebranding, and new guest wing ensure sustained utilization at the wharf, while the hotel’s unique nautical concept - including round portals and wind vanes - anchors the youthful indoor/outdoor amenities within their maritime context.
